The year 2020 somehow from the start has been described as a not so pleasant year.
Although marking a decade seemed a nice experience that even called for the social media trend of throwbacks where people shared pictures of themselves ten years ago, the year took a bad turn.
Forecasts of 2020 being the year everything came together have been slightly inaccurate
This year has been the greatest hits of every bad thing that could possibly happen
The year feels like Old Testament Egypt during the plagues

Towards the end of 2019, China and America gave the world a scare of a possible world war III and then came Storm Ciara which hit the United Kingdom and Ireland around February 2. It was a powerful and long-lived extratropical cyclone that was the first of a pair of European windstorms to impact these two places at peak intensity less than a week apart, followed later by Storm Dennis.
like many, I thought 2020 would be an AMAZING start to the decade.
nope, nope, nope, nope, nope.
nope.
definitely not, even 2016 was better.
yes, I said it, this year has been that bad.

And there were Australia bushfires which started in late 2019, and things swiftly got worse before rains helped contain many of the worst fires in February 2020.
Followed by floods in Africa. Alice Town in Amathole District Municipality, Eastern Cape, South Africa experienced heavy rain during a storm on 2 February 2020 which caused severe flash flooding.
All these and many other happenings have made a lot of people conclude the year is not a good one.
As if that was not enough, the world is now facing coronavirus pandemic.
According to worldometers.com, as at 17th March, 194,725 cases of covid-19 were recorded, resulting in 7,894 and 81,080 recoveries.
Putting all these into perspective, the artiste took to twitter to register his thought.
He is not the only one with this thought. His fans and followers have been agreeing with him in their replies with some saying they won’t be surprised if the rapture were to happen anytime soon.
